Re: FS: GLP 473nm aka Aquarius

So how does this baby compare to a 445nm? I never seen this WL in real life.

445nm looks purple next to 473nm. It's a really nice wavelength, plus you'll have the nice tight beam of a DPSS laser.

445 does not compare at all to 473!

Re: FS: GLP 473nm aka Aquarius

There are people around collecting every available wavelength. I´m the type of laser enthusiasts who wants to see the different wavelengths in person at least one time.

The 473nm has a MUCH better beam profile and beam specifications than the 445nm. It´s caused by the DPSS characteristics of the 473nm, compared to the multimode 445nm diode. Comparing them is day & night. The color of the 473nm has a touch of cyan, 445nm has a bit of violet inside. (Pontiacg5 summed it up well)


Good luck with getting the job!



I think it hasn't sold yet because of the 445nm's. If you would have sold this before the Casio projectors came out. It would have went quick. I don't think people appreciate the different wavelengths.

Im assuming its a lot lighter blue than 445. Getting more closer to the "teal" side?

Aw man! This is killing me! if it's still available come tax time, I'll grab it. It will be gone though because tax time is still a couple weeks out. I love this color!

@ SilverShot, shame on you buddy. $473.00 for that laser is a slap in the face to the owner. GREEN (532nm) lasers sell for ~$1.00 per mW. To expect to get a 473nm laser for the same amount of mW's per $1.00 is an insult. Just my opinion................ rob

Re: FS: GLP 473nm aka Aquarius

Is that just a glass prism in ur pictures?

This is a high quality glas diffraction grating. I´ll add it to the package if someone is interested in purchasing this laser.


$473 and I'll take it ^^

Rob, a 532nm would be $532 looking at Silvershot´s intelligent calculations :)rolleyes:). It´s ok when he gives an (non serious?) offer. Really interested buyers would only consider the usefull post or send me a PM for more questions :)

Yup. sorry I had to put a :na: or something :beer: I was just thinking of another member who made a similar offer based on the wavelength :D
